RULED BY PREJUDICE 3,

Few persons realize how thoroughly
they are controlled by prejudice even to
their own disadvantage. For many years
the treatment of rheumatism, neuralgia,
sciatlca and headache has been by some
outward application, and, therefore, with
out stopping to think that the origin of
these troubles must, from necessity, be in
ternal, the weary sufferer continues to rub,
rub and find no relief. Athlophorosis taken
internally, and as proof that this is the
correct principle, it cures surely and

Habits Of Smokers.

Smokers have all sorts of peculiar
tricks and oddities. One man I once
knew had the trick of constantly
knocking off the ashes with his little
finger. He would keep that little
finger wagging continually, and when
there were no ashes he would burn his
finger. But it was habit which he
seemed wholly unable to overcome.
Some men whom have known would
always swallow the smoke. The nico-
tine-laden vapors which they would
take into their stomachs must have
kept those organs in a constant state
Of distention. Others seemed to find
inexplicable delight in making CHM
neys Of their noses aid sending the
smoke in volumes through those ORR
fees. I once knew q man who had a
peculiar trick of shutting one eye to
look along his cigar with the other
as he put it into his mouth. He was
a bashful man and never thought of
flirting with the girls on the streets,
but that habit used to get him into no
end of scrapes. How? Why the girls
all thought he was winking at them.
The peculiar habits of smokers will
sometimes run through whole
family. remember funny instance
of that. A man came to me in nv
office one day and represented himself
as 4 brother of an old friend of nine
He was a shabby, forlorn looking
specimen, and l was not inclined to
believe his story, especially as there
was no personal resemblance to his
brother, but / sat and talked to him
awhile. He told a plausible story, but
l was still disinclined to believe him,
and finally told him to clear out, that
could not be bothered with him.
Then my better feelings came to the
front and l gave him cigar. He
took it with a sad, forgiving smile and
lit it. He hadn't taken but one puff
before / was on my feet begging his
pardon. After taking that puff he
had taken out his cigar with peculiar
jerk and had blown the smoke out at
the corner of his mouth in a manner
which / had noticed and laughed at
over a hundred times when with his
brother saw him do it. I, knew then
l was not being imposed upon.-Gal-
veston Neacs.

Fish as Food and Fertilizer.

The average annual catch of mack
.rel by our fishermen, for five years
ending in 1855, was SCI 200 barrels.
IN 1886 the catch was $4,000 barrels.
This diminution caused an advance in
prices, which in time was followed by

The Case Against the Reading Pool
Closed Yesterday.
HARRIsBURGH, Pa, March 27.-The
argument in the coal pool cases was re-
Sumed this morning by GeOrgeN Y. Karcher,
representing the Reading Coal and Iron
Company, who claimed that the coal COM
panies had the right to organize
for the intelligent operation of
their business and so conducted their
interests as to avoid bankruptcy. John J.
johnson, of Philadelphia, for the defense,
took up the hill of complaint of the At
torney General and said everyone had
been refuted by the evidence taken. The
coal pool was not contrary TO public policy
s6iong as the public was not being injured
and in this case it was being benefited.
Attorney General kirkpatrick closed the
case in an appeal for the injunction, as
serting that the coal pool by combining
had kept up the prices of transportation
and coal and was positive injury to the
public, which should have every Oppor-
tunity TO secure cheap coal. The court
took the papers and reserved its decision.

\ GhastIy Discovery Made bya New Jersey
Farmer.
RAILWAY, y. J., March PA horrible
murder occurred here some time during
last night.
At an early hour this morning farmer
who was driving into the city found the
dead body of well dressed woman ly-
ing at one side of Jefferson avenue. Her
throat was cut from ear to ear and her
dress aud wrap were completely soaked
with blood.
The news of the discovery spread rapidly
throughout the city, causing intense excite
ment.
Dr. James S. Green, of Elizabeth
county, physician Of Union county and
brother OfGOyernOr Green, was telegraphed
for and visited the scene OF the murder.
He said the young woman had undoubt-
edly made a desperate struggle for life, rs
the soft earth WAS torn up for some dis
tance around the body. On one side OF
the body lay small basket filled with
fresh eggs. The girls hands we're torn
and scratched Death resulted from ter
rible wound in the throat An excited
crowd of men and women numbering sew
eral hundred was to be seen grouped about
the body.
DIR. Green decided not To remove the
body until it had been photographed as it
lay in the huge pool of blood, and ordered
a photographer to visit the scene OF the
murder and take number of views of the
body. the trampled ground and the sur
rOundiugs. The dead girl was 2G years old
and her appearance indicates that she was
of German birth. She was well dressed.
Up to noon the body had been viewed by
several thousand persons, but none could
identify it.
